This thing has shit brakes. I ran up the back of someone yesterday after some plonker in a Cruze decided to randomly pull a U-turn in front of oncoming traffic on a busy road at peak hour. The guy in front hit the brakes, I did too, attempted to swerve to miss him but locked up and not being used to no ABS, didn't have the reactions to stop it. The thing just really doesn't pull up with any sort of urgency, and that's pretty much unladen. I can't imagine what it would be like having to emergency brake if you had it loaded up and a trailer even to GCM. You'd just plough straight on.
Anyway, thankfully the stupid thing managed to wipe off enough speed by the time the inevitable happened, and the other car, an old Hyundai S-Coupe, suffered no damage. And of course with the bull bar, I didn't either. So I got off lucky, but I really need to learn to work with non-ABS brakes, and really leave colossal gaps between me and the car in front.
Oh, and of course the guy in the Cruze just fucked off after he completed his manoeuvre.
